Post Whats on your Skmind

Today I tried a 3 off a little jump but caught my tail on the lip and hit my head pretty hard. For like 15 seconds afterward I felt really lightheaded and dizzy and everything was super bright. Once I got back up I went to the side of the run and laid down for a few minutes until I felt ready enough to ski down to the base. I can still remember everything that happened that day and I felt normal for the rest of the day, I also asked this ski coach to check out my pupils real quick and he said everything looked normal. Do you guys still think I should see a doctor?

100% see a doctor but i can tell you right now that you do have a concussion even if it isn’t diagnosable. it takes way less force than most think to become concussed. i’d rest at least a week to be safe if it’s not diagnosable. even the impact from a nice easy landing could make it worse which is what you want to avoid with your rest. no jolts or harsh stopping of momentum in your head in anyway.

Its worth getting it checked-out. You're explaining some pretty classic patient presentations of a concussion at least.

Anyone been paying attention to the weather forecast for the next week? Storm of the year is coming, finally seeing some involvement of the northern jet stream branch, it going to buckle south and absolutely hammer BC / WA / OR. Should hopefully bring lots of moisture and cold air, looking forward to see how it plays out!
 
wanna try backflips this weekend, we finally got snow and a jump yay, are they easier to spin with softer skis? My sfb are 176cm and around 2730 grams a ski with the bindings and my arv 96s 177cm are 2950 grams a ski, but stiffer and more stable? Which one do i take out?

i wouldn't overanalyze that. both will be just fine for it. use whatever youre most comfy with on jumps, i'd say

They seem interesting. Do any of you guys remember KLINT Skis at all? Tanner Rainville was their pro for a while, but they remind me of a rockered zero camber park ski I had when I was like 16/17 that was super fun to ride.

I used them for my backyard setup a while back, pretty fun but never took em out
 
Doesn't matter, take what you're more comfortable on.

we are absolutely cooked here in Ohio as well. There was like 1 week where we had good coverage on the hills but besides that it's been on life support the entire season

Yeah we had those couple big storms after Christmas and January was pretty damn good but February has been total ass. And looks like winter is over now.

I hate Pennsylvania so much. I can´t name one place except Elk that cares about the park. Cbk has all trails open right now but has a total of 3 jibs and one small jump. Went to springs last year in Feb and there was 4 jibs. Big boulder also used to be so fun. I Remember being 10 seeing people hit the crazy jibs they used to have at Boulder. Sad to see it turn out this way.

[tag=291270]@ryan.steckley[/tag] I was at springs last February and they had way more that 4 jibs. Did you just go to Santa’s beard? Because there’s multiple parks there. Sounds like you were lost.

he's probably in eastern PA. I think east PA is pretty desolate for parks

blue mountain, bear creek, roundtop all have decent parks. Definitely possible to hit bad parks if rebuilds are happening

Home boy is tripping. Springs, blue mountain, bear creek, and roundtop all have good parks and actually give a fuck. Shoutout to vail for letting springs and roundtop park crews do their thing, they’ve even given them a nice budget to weld tons of new features over the past few summers.

Yeah ur probably right. I honestly haven’t been to those other resorts you are talking about. I guess it’s just my area

You’re probably right I’m just not close to those resorts. I should have been more specific in my location
 
went to a tramp park for the first time in 2 years, some guy taught me how to backflip properly, did like 100 backys on all the different trampolines (almost landed one on a mat), learnt how to misty 5, sent huge spins into a foam pit, all that in 2 hours, im ready for the snow this weekend!

Winter Park really has some of the most fucked rails I've ever seen open to public. And mogul courses you can ski marked with signage. It's rad but damn y'all are gonna get gapers killed.

Like seriously there's a trapezoid flat bar that's like 40ft off the ground

Was incredibly close to dub 10, unfortunately this was my only attempt as speed became incredibly slow

What happened? Could be a contusion or bone bruise
Click to expand...

def not a broken heel lol.. i think i might have bruised it tho. sometimes my heel will randomnly ache, but it usually goes away. but it lined up with the best weekend of skiing this year so i just aggravated it i think. it shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Bruised heel can last for a long ass time. Especially if you can’t keep weight off it.

fell off a ladder from a second story while helping my pops with their hurricane shutters years ago. Nailed my fucking heel when I hit the ground. Had a severe heel bruise.

hurt for fucking months depending how much pressure I was putting on it. Took almost a year before I no longer felt any issues.

Don't think that budget money made it to roundtop. We haven't bought new steel in years, everything is recycled rails which were recycled snowmaking pipe to begin with for the most part.

A Basin when they got a reggae band playing the base area is an absolute vibe.

Here in Cleveland we get an average of 60 sunny days per year. Most people here have a vitamin D deficiency

Not in December and January. Those are the cloudiest most dreary months of the year here.
